Subject: ptrace, x86: fix the usage of ptrace_fork()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.29-rc5~34^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=06eb23b1ba39c61ee5d5faeb42a097635693e370;p=pandora-kernel.git

ptrace, x86: fix the usage of ptrace_fork()

I noticed by pure accident we have ptrace_fork() and friends. This was
added by "x86, bts: add fork and exit handling", commit
bf53de907dfdaac178c92d774aae7370d7b97d20.

I can't test this, ds_request_bts() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, but I strongly
believe this needs the fix. I think something like this program

	int main(void)
	{
		int pid = fork();

		if (!pid) {
			ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, NULL, NULL);
			kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
			fork();
		} else {
			struct ptrace_bts_config bts = {
				.flags = PTRACE_BTS_O_ALLOC,
				.size  = 4 * 4096,
			};

			wait(NULL);

			ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, NULL, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK);
			ptrace(PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG, pid, &bts, sizeof(bts));
			ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, NULL, NULL);

			sleep(1);
		}

		return 0;
	}

should crash the kernel.

If the task is traced by its natural parent ptrace_reparented() returns 0
but we should clear ->btsxxx anyway.
